Sickness in australia

Still sick, but not quite as miserably so. Have decided to try using Chronic Fatigue Syndrome resources to figure out what's making feel so terrible all the time, since while I don't know that I do have big-CF Chronic Fatigue, I do definitely have small-cf chronic fatigue, and the way you diagnose big-CF fatigue is by testing for all the things that cause small-cf fatigue, so either I get diagnosed with one of those or I tun out to have big-CF S after all.
I emailed the WA ME/CFS society to ask if they have any GPs they recommend who are less likely to tell me I just need to eat more vegetables *mutter*, I must remember the one I was seeing in Nedlands back in 2003ish before I ran out of money and patience since he at least was willing to send me in for tests and specialists rather than brushing me off.

Also, since someone asked, a big version of my "Australia" icon. And yes, I was too lazy to finish off the bits I knew would get cropped :)

How I fill my empty days

More "This is what I read while I was sick" linkspam. Overall my favourite places have been crack_van, makesmewannadie and this post of vids about/by POC (some of which aren't fantastic, but some are pretty good and it's a nice mix of vidders and underused subjects)

• Secret Asian Man A vid about all those many asian characters in Firefly. As you'd expect, quite short, but also clever and amusing :)
  
• The Rather Odd Couple Very cute and fun post "Journeys End" Ten/Rose
  
• outside the sky waits beckoning, beckoning Cute story about the earth
